Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a suspension arm for a vehicle, comprising a bearing and a journal, wherein the bearing comprises at least one elastic sub-element and wherein the bearing is arranged on the journal and is formed such that it encloses the journal.
  • the present invention concerns a production method for a suspension arm of a vehicle having a bearing.
  • a transversely elastic bearing arrangement for a suspension arm in a wheel suspension which comprises a bearing bolt and a bearing, the bearing being in the form of a rubber bearing.
  • This rubber bearing comprises both an outer and an inner sleeve, such that between the sleeves —at least in part—an elastomer body is provided.
  • the bolt is pressed into the inner sleeve, this also being known as a press fit.
  • a press fit if the rubber bearing has to be replaced, then both the bearing itself and the bolt can easily be damaged because of the high press-on and extraction forces.
  • FIG. 1 shows a journal 22 of a suspension arm 11 , which has a single step.
  • the journal 22 has a stepped area 22 a and a contact surface 22 b for a bearing 44 .
  • the bearing 44 comprises an inner sleeve 44 a and an outer sleeve 44 b . Between the inner sleeve 44 a and the outer sleeve 44 b is arranged an elastomer body 44 c.
  • the bearing 44 is fitted onto the journal 22 by a press fit.
  • a press fit between the two components means that in the area 22 b the diameter of the journal is larger than the diameter of the inner sleeve 44 a .
  • the disadvantage of this is that in the area 22 b the inner sleeve 44 a of the bearing 44 and the journal 22 can be damaged during the assembly or dismantling of the bearing 44 because of the large pressing-on or extraction forces involved.
  • the stepped area 22 a serves as a stop for the bearing 44 , i.e. the bearing 44 can be pressed onto the journal 22 up to that area 22 a.
  • FIG. 2 shows a journal 222 of a suspension arm 111 and a bearing 444 .
  • the journal 222 and the bearing 444 are connected to one another in the area 222 a with interlock by means of a matching conical shape.
  • the bearing 444 comprises an inner sleeve 444 a , an outer sleeve 444 b , and an elastomer body 444 c arranged between the inner sleeve 444 a and the outer sleeve 444 b.
  • fastening means in the form of a screw 333 are provided.
  • the screw 333 serves as a further connecting element between the journal 222 and the bearing 444 .
  • the screw head comes in contact with the bearing 444 and the screw connector is screwed into the journal 222 of the suspension arm 111 .
  • the bearing 444 does not comprise the journal 222 of the suspension arm.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to enable a simply designed and inexpensive connection of a bearing to a bearing journal.
  • a suspension arm for a vehicle comprising a bearing and a journal, wherein the bearing comprises at least one elastic sub-element and wherein the bearing is arranged on the journal of the suspension arm and is designed to enclose the journal and a production method according to the invention for a suspension arm of a vehicle.
  • the suspension arm according to the invention for a vehicle comprises a bearing and a journal, the bearing having at least one elastic sub-element and being designed to be arranged on the journal of the suspension arm so that it encloses the journal.
  • the distinguishing feature of the suspension arm is that the journal and the bearing are designed to co-operate in such manner that relative to the journal the bearing has a transition fit, and the bearing is fixed to the journal by a fastening element.
  • transition fit is used in accordance with the definition which is usual in mechanical engineering, namely a borderline between a press fit and a clearance fit. Fits are determined by the difference between the size of a bore and the size of a shaft:
  • ‘Press fit’ also called ‘interference fit’
  • ‘Clearance fit’ means that the minimum size of the bore is always larger than, or in the limiting case equal to the largest size of the shaft.
  • a transition fit depending on the actual sizes of the bore and shaft, when these are joined there is either some clearance or an interference, see for example “ frayer Metall ” (Metal Proficiency), Verlag Europa - Lehrstoff, 2003, ISBN 3-8085-1154-0.
  • the essential requirement for the presence of a transition fit is not the actual sizes, but rather, the tolerance ranges of the components used:
  • transition fits in accordance with the “Uniform bore” fit system are: d j6 H7 or d m6 H7 , see ISO Standard 286(-1/-2).
  • the existence of a transition fit is determined by the manufacturing specifications of the components used and on a statistical analysis of a large number of manufactured components.
  • journal is the shaft and the clear inside diameter of the inner sleeve of the bearing is the bore.
  • the arrangement according to the invention makes it possible during the assembly of the suspension arm to press the bearing onto, or push it over the journal with less effort and then fix it there by fastening means. In the event of dismantling, the bearing can be pulled off easily and exchanged, without damaging the bearing or the journal.
  • a preferred embodiment of the suspension arm according to the invention provides that the journal is made integrally with the rest of the suspension arm.
  • the journal which is enclosed by the bearing, can be a first part of the suspension arm which is connected to a further part of the suspension arm. This enables the suspension arm to be designed flexibly so that it can easily be adapted to the structural space available. It is also within the scope of the invention that the journal is a separate component, which is connected to the rest of the suspension arm.
  • the journal of the suspension arm has at least one stepped area such that the bearing is pushed onto the journal as far as the step.
  • This provides a preferably all-round axial end-stop surface by virtue of which the bearing can be positioned.
  • the assembly of the bearing is simplified since the stop surface produced by the step facilitates defined positioning of the bearing on the suspension arm, Furthermore, the stop surface also serves to absorb the longitudinal forces that occur.
  • Also within the scope of the invention is to make the journal with more than one step. This reduces the contact area of the bearing on the journal, so that both the bearing and the journal can be handled with care and are less severely loaded.
  • the fastening means are connected detachably to the suspension arm. This enables maintenance and repair work to be carried out in a simple manner.
  • the fastening element is designed to be detachable, preferably in the manner of a screw.
  • it is arranged in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the journal, preferably coaxially.
  • the screw is preferably arranged detachably and is screwed into the journal along the longitudinal axis thereof.
  • the screw serves to secure the bearing against coming loose, to fix it, and to hold it in position firmly.
  • the screw enables the bearing to be replaced easily.
  • the screw transmits any torque acting upon the bearing to the journal.
  • the fastening element is secured against inadvertent loosening by an adhesive, which adhesive is preferably arranged in the area of the screw thread.
  • This securing with adhesive ensures that the screw connection will not come apart inadvertently and will function as a durable and safe connection between the structural elements.
  • the securing adhesive can be arranged in the area of the screw thread (thread clearance) of the screw.
  • a washer is provided between the screw and the bearing, in order to transmit the initial screwing force. Besides transmitting the initial screwing force to the bearing, the washer protects the bearing from damage during assembly and during the screwing process.
  • the bearing is in the form of a rubber bearing.
  • this rubber bearing consists of an inner sleeve or inner bush and an outer sleeve or outer bush, with an elastomer body between them, at least in part.
  • the inner bush and the journal are paired in the manner of a transition fit.
  • Both the inner and the outer sleeve are advantageously made of a metallic material, preferably aluminum.
  • the journal is also preferably made of aluminum.
  • the invention should not be deemed to be restricted to that material, as other materials can be used as well.
  • the advantage of a rubber bearing is that there are various embodiment variants and sizes thereof, which have been well tried in the prior art.
  • the choice of a transition fit prevents any scoring, i.e. damage of the surface of the journal and of the inner sleeve of the rubber bearing.
  • the journal can also be made with more than one step.
  • the journal has at least a second stepped area to reduce the contact surface between the inner bush and the journal. Compared with the previously known prior art this reduces damage, for example “scoring” of the components.
  • the suspension arm can be arranged on a front wheel axle or on a rear wheel axle. This implies that the suspension arm according to the invention can be used in various ways.
  • the manufacturing method for a suspension arm according to the invention of a vehicle with a bearing comprises the following process steps:
  • the bearing and the journal are each chosen from a quantity of components whose relative tolerances for the bearing and journal give a pairing in the manner of a transition fit
  • the bearing is first pushed onto a journal of the suspension arm, preferably as far as the stepped area,
  • the bearing is then fixed on the journal by the fastening means, preferably by means of a screw.
  • the method according to the invention enables the journal and the bearing to be securely and durably connected and when necessary, for example for repair work, for that connection to be undone without damaging the bearing.
  • the bearing and journal are substantially less severely stressed.
  • FIG. 1 The connection of a suspension arm with a journal and a bearing in the manner of a press fit according to the prior art
  • FIG. 2 A suspension arm journal and a bearing with shape interlock and a screw connection according to the prior art
  • FIG. 3 A suspension arm according to the invention, with a journal and bearing paired in the manner of a transition fit and secured by a screw;
  • FIG. 4 An enlarged representation of a further development of the suspension arm according to the invention, with a journal as in FIG. 3 but without the bearing.
  • FIG. 3 shows a suspension arm 1 according to the invention with its journal 2 , the journal 2 having a stepped area 2 a and a contact surface 2 b .
  • a bearing 4 In the area of the contact surface 2 b of the journal 2 there is arranged a bearing 4 .
  • the bearing 4 comprises an inner bush 4 a and an outer bush 4 b , and between the inner bush 4 a and the outer bush 4 b there is, in part, an elastomer body 4 c.
  • the inner bush 4 a is pushed on as far as the stepped area 2 a of the journal 2 .
  • This stepped area 2 a serves as an axial stop for the bearing 4 , and simplifies assembly.
  • the bearing 4 and the journal 2 have a transition fit, which is to be understood as defined earlier. As regards the actual dimensions, this means that the outer diameter of the journal 2 is smaller or larger than the inside diameter of the bearing 4 or its inner bush 4 a.
  • a screw 3 is provided to secure the bearing 4 on the journal 2 .
  • the screw 3 is screwed in the axial direction along the longitudinal extension of the journal 2 into a bore in the journal 2 , so that it is coaxial with the latter.
  • a washer 5 Between a screw head 3 b and the bearing 4 and journal 2 is arranged a washer 5 .
  • the washer 5 acts upon the inner bush 4 a of the bearing 4 , It serves to transmit the initial screwing force of the screw.
  • an adhesive is provided to secure the screw 3 against loosening.
  • the bearing 4 is first pushed onto the journal as far as the stepped area 2 a , which can be done relatively easily thanks to the transition fit between them. Then, the adhesive 6 is applied to the thread of the screw. The screw 3 , with the washer 5 fitted thereon, is then screwed into the journal 2 in the direction shown by the arrow M until the screw head 3 b or the washer 5 comes in contact with the bearing 4 in the area of the inner sleeve 4 a .
  • the outer sleeve 4 b of the bearing 4 is connected to some other component, for example the body of a vehicle (not shown).
  • FIG. 4 shows an enlarged representation of a further development of the journal 2 in FIG. 3 , but without the bearing 4 .
  • the journal 2 of the suspension arm 1 has a further stepped area 2 c . As explained earlier, this reduces the contact surface 2 b between the bearing 4 and the journal 2 .
